　　Adrienne: Mm, I studied there.

　　Todd: Really! You studied in Mexico?

　　Adrienne: I did. I studied Spanish.

　　Todd: Wow, so what was it like being a student in Mexico?

　　Adrienne: Ah, it was interesting. The weather was really hot the entire time I was there. Um, and it was very confusing, cause I didn't know the language very well when I first arrived but I learned¹ quickly because I was living in the situation every day where I had to use language so that was really helpful in the end.

　　Todd: So, what were the people like? What was the city like?

　　Adrienne: The city was small. 1 million people, and that's pretty small. The architecture is very colonial² style. It's interesting. Very beautiful, old, a lot of wood and stone and the food was great. Very spicy³.

　　Todd: Mexican food's the best.

　　Adrienne: I think so tooTodd: Yeah, and the people?

　　Adrienne: The people are really friendly, really, really friendly. Big families and they're always inviting⁴ you over for dinner, lunch and breakfast, and tea and coffee and chocolate and it's really, it's really a very familial environment.

　　Todd: What was your favorite place in Mexico?

　　Adrienne: My favorite place, still, is a town called Cholula. It's a very small town. That has a pyramid, and Aztec pyramid with a cathedral on top of it and it has views of the mountains, the volcano⁵ and, um, just beautiful landscape all around. It's a great place to watch the sunset.

　　Todd: What volcano?

　　Adrienne: Po! They call it Popo, but the full name I think is Popocatepetl. It's an Aztec name.

　　Todd: Oh, sounds like a nice place.

　　Adrienne: It's beautiful.

　　Todd: Any plans to go back to Mexico soon?

　　Adrienne: Of course. I always want to go back but whether I actually make it in the next year or two, I don't know.
